Btw did you try 2 sticks in and set the bios to 1T ? That is if you can of course. I'm thinking of some weird one in a trillion possibility that the memory has a problem and wont work on 2T whit 2 sticks in.

Anyway the RMA is the best for now.

2T is relaxed command timing which actually reduces the strain on ram and memory controller, so this is possible but not likely

All is fixed now, memory instantly boot into dual channel no problems. I switched from my h50 to the hyper212+ (kinda regret that = lots of noise lol) umm only problem i had was with the AHCI or what ever disabled that and put it into IDE. all in all intel is finally starting to behave for me.

1st of all I read someone said put the memory in slots 1 and 2. This not correct. They need to be in slots 2 and 4. Second, did you see if your memory is on the approves list from ASRock. The ram may be incompatable. Next up: is the ram working at default frequency? or was it XMP, or overclocked. So far you have been to vague.

If you was on about my post i said slots 1 and 3 and seeing as i have the same mobo as the op i think i should know if slot 1 and 3 works with dual channel mode and it does.

Dude I don't know how else to say this so I'm going to be blunt with caps...

I HAVE TRIED EVER MEMORY CONFIGURATION POSSIBLE WITH EACH STICK.

and yes it has been on auto, when that didn't work I lowered the frequency to 1333 that didnt work I went to auto and up'd the voltage that didn't work..

I concluded that it can't be a short because it was on the mobo box and the anti static bag. so I said F it... im going to RMA

Just so you know some anti static bags can conduct electricity. I verified this years ago. Note, not all do.
the point of the antistatic bag is to conduct any incoming electricity away from the component inside. So it gets redirected across the bag.
